Version 6.0 continued Mathematica's commitment to delivering the latest and most efficient algorithms for linear algebra, generalized to arbitrary precision and with full ...

Mathematica incorporates the latest algorithms—some original to Wolfram Research—for evaluating mathematical constants to any number of digits of precision. For basic ...

RuntimeOptions is an option for Compile that specifies runtime settings for the compiled function it creates.

e_1 && e_2 && ... is the logical AND function. It evaluates its arguments in order, giving False immediately if any of them are False, and True if they are all True.

Compile[{x_1, x_2, ...}, expr] creates a compiled function that evaluates expr assuming numerical values of the x_i. Compile[{{x_1, t_1}, ...}, expr] assumes that x_i is of a ...

"How to" Topics Numbers Algebraic Calculations

Mathematica's symbolic character allows a powerful unification of the notion of conditionals in programming and in mathematics.

Mathematica represents vectors as lists, and never needs to distinguish between row and column cases. Vectors in Mathematica can always mix numbers and arbitrary symbolic or ...

Divisible[n, m] yields True if n is divisible by m, and yields False if it is not.

Extension is an option for various polynomial and algebraic functions that specifies generators for the algebraic number field to be used.
